DI Pipe Ultrasonic Inspection Engineer

I have a production run of ductile-iron pipes that must be verified before dispatch, and I need a seasoned inspection engineer to take the lead. Your core task is ultrasonic digital testing, zeroing in on metal wall thickness as well as the integrity of both the external coating and internal lining. A solid background—five years or more—in DI pipe inspection, coupled with hands-on experience in visual and dimensional checks, is essential because I still rely on those techniques to cross-validate readings. We will work in strict accordance with project specifications, so you should be comfortable using calibrated ultrasonic gauges, coating-thickness meters, and standard dimensional tools, capturing results in real time. I expect more than raw numbers: every test session must translate into a comprehensive report that includes data sets, trend or spot graphs where useful, clear acceptance criteria, and your professional recommendations. Each report feeds directly into the formal Inspection Report (IR) and the Inspection Release Note (IRN) that accompany the shipment, so accuracy and clarity are critical. Please outline your proposed sampling plan, test procedure, and the software or data-logging tools you intend to use. If you have template IR/IRN documents, feel free to attach a sample; otherwise, be prepared to generate them from scratch in an editable format (Word or Excel preferred, PDFs for final issue). I am ready to move quickly once I confirm your credentials and approach, so let me know your availability for an initial call and the earliest on-site start date you can commit to.
